The Marvel UK thread in the Classic Comics section got me wondering where everyone is from. I believe we had a thread like this at the old place, but I couldn't find one here. In addition to commenting, I created a Google Map that you can edit and provide your location on. I STRONGLY recommend choosing the nearest city and NOT your home address. Let's not invite any stalkers Here's the map: www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=z7yiZR-cmtVU.knuf-TP3rGE0&usp=sharing

That can get complicated. Are you looking for where we're originally from or where we are now? Because I've lived in several different states.

Dear All,
I live in the Greater Seattle/Everett Area pretty much since I was born in 1959. I also spent nearly 2.5 years of my life in Victoria/Vancouver Canada seeing old friends up there and I did a lot of traveling between the two cities Seattle/Victoria for business and personal and was a dual citizen for many years until I dropped by Citizenship in Canada in 2009. Most of my friends in Canada were generated during my College Years from 1978 to 1982. I also spent a summer in Banff National Park (Alberta) in 1982 helping a friend get started in the Hotel Business and I did a lot of odd jobs during that Summer. His Hotel was situated on Lake Louise a very picturesque and gorgeous scenery.

I am from near Chicago. Sometimes I am proud of that, other times, not so much.

Cei-U! Glad to be anywhere, truthfully!

I grew up in country Victoria in Australia (a place called Glengarry, just outside of Traralgon; not that I expect anyone to have heard of either of those places). For the last 24 years, I've been living in Canberra, Australia's capital city.

Started out in south-western Michigan, halfway between Grand Rapids & Battle Creek. Moved to Central Florida as a pre-teen, then briefly back to Michigan before joining the Navy and going to San Diego, CA, Charleston, SC, & Newport, RI. Got married and followed her home to just outside Milwaukee, WI, and been here ever since.
